Chivas USA took the StubHub Center’s Field 6 on Friday morning to continue prepping up ahead of their game against the New York Red Bulls on Sunday, Aug. 25 at 2 p.m. (PT). Sunday’s match will be the only occasion the Goats will face the Eastern Conference rival in this 2013 Major League Soccer season.

The session kicked off by warming up with a light jog around the pitch. Split in pairs and working under the instructions of Strength & Conditioning Coach Armando Camacho, the team did some additional exercises with the ball.

Once they were ready for action, the group was divided by position on the field. Placed across the field and with José Luis Real as their leader, the defenders worked on ball distribution from their line to the midfield. Meanwhile, the same exercise took place from the middle of the field up to the forwards who would then shoot at goal.

After 45 minutes of working on distribution, the group moved on to host an intersquad game in three quarters of the field. The session then finished with some stretching while Tristan Bowen and Carlos Álvarez work on their shooting abilities with Chivas Director of Soccer Francisco Palencia.
